My Cascade Hops At Six Weeks
My cascade hops have been growing steadily over the past couple of weeks. They have been growing so much that they have out grown the trellis. I had one vine that grew one foot past the trellis. What to do with the over growth became a concern of mine. It was suggested to just let the hops just grown and do “their thing”. I allowed the hops to grow untrained for about a week, then I decided to take the hanging hop veins and re-train them on the trellis to go back the trellis. So far the hops taken well to this re-training.
I have also allowed to two younger hops vine to grow up the trellis, instead of cutting them. I plan on keeping a close eye on the young vines, in case they appear to be harming the overall health of the plant.
